I really think this should really never be 10. I think mark is a 10 and Jennifer is a 12 in my world where there are easy 11s. But we will see lol

ouch.. 10 surprised me...

Insanity was just trolling us, we still don’t know the number. Derwi did the rand

It was 9....almost played out completely beautifully.

I went Barry because I thought your random Charlie or Chad's would be 11...Barry just seemed to have a little more "ruff" to it.

As far as rules(couldn't comment before) - I think modifiers or things that tell your team where to go are against the spirit of the game(so in the one question profitable obviously throws you at the good investment spectrum)

For this particular clue I think it needs to be 1 word or maybe 2 like a Mr. Pickles. Obviously naming my dog "Uno" or my cat "thirteen" would be illegal clues, but I think famous dogs like Scooby, Cliff, Lassie are all fine as well as made up stuff like Aarfy - same for cats along the lines of Felix, Tom and Meowtrix.

Picked it cause it looked like a fun category plus we need someone knowledgeable to guess in case we get stuck with the Pokemon =p

Back to “trust my instincts”. So tilting.

EB up I think

Nice clue for a really hard category and number Ervin, well done.

Yeah I shoulda pushed harder for 9

3 is still a good result tho!!

From here on out if I think it’s one specific number I’m pushing it. No more of this 4 point range math BS. Gotta stand by my convictions. I was on 9 the whole time and talked myself into lower lulz

You guys and eleanor were right on it....I thought it did pretty well from a 'direct bink' perspective and from a macro perspective in what actually happened where it got pushed lower then back up.

Whenever we are on same team in future we will be masons

Smh haha

I'll do Dictatorship/Democracy.

Iceland

Like... 20? I will admit to a lot of ignorance on this subject so if someone knows something about it I am very flexible but I think of them as a democracy. I don’t know enough about the nuances to compare them to Scandi countries or whatever. Think he would give USA as 21

USA isn’t close to 21

Yeah just to be clear I don’t think USA is actually 21, it’s the meme extreme answer

He could also say like founding fathers or something for 21. I really do believe if it’s not a clear 21 it’s usually a 20 and if it’s not a clear 1 it’s a 2 etc cuz there are so many possibilities for the very extremes. But again, I am kind of ignorant here so maybe there is something obvious I don’t know about Iceland

And nich I just realized you’re not my teammate. Lol.

George Washington is also a decent 21 (gave up power when people didn’t want him to). There are so many 21s that I think this is 20 unless I don’t know something. Does anyone know the difference between Iceland and say Denmark in terms of this? I guess it could be 19. I wish I could be more nuanced, especially because I know eb is an expert at this kind of stuff. I am 19-20 with a 20 lean

If you go 21, our team will only need 7 hours to decide higher/lower, so that’s a plus

Lol. I also just remembered my friend met the prince of Denmark and Gus Hansen at a bridge tournament, so lol that example. I’ll just shut up and wait for my teammates to chime in, lolme if Iceland is a monarchy. I just think of the Scandis as so democratic. Love them all!
